Does your grinder suffer from a hot platen?

Let our new platen chiller keep things cool!

Our platen chiller measures 105x49mm and is CNC machined from billet 6061 aluminium. It contains 2 enclosed magnets for easy positioning on any steel surface. The chiller can be used on any platen, on any grinder!

Flat platen
Plunge Platen
Radius platen
Any other platen with a flat back surface!

The platen comes with:

2 x 8mm push to connect fittings pre-installed,
2 x 2m lengths of 8mm blue polyurethane hose
An 8mm-1/2" BSP fitting to fit into the submersible pump.
Cable tie to anchor return hose
Optional 24w 240v submersible pump

20L bucket not supplied

You will need to supply a 20L/5Gal bucket and lid for the pump and water. Simply cut a couple of notches around the rim of the bucket for the hoses and leads, fill with water, pop the lid on and your good to go. Do not use your swarf bucket! A separate, sealed clean bucket is required.

For non-Australian customers we will supply pump details so you can source a pump locally that will suit your power supply.

Amazing addition

This chiller thing helps keep the platten cool while grinding, and prevents the heat from transferring to the rubber wheels. I really like this addition to my machine. It helps a bunch !!! Thank you for coming out with something like this :-)

Platten Cooler

Okay, so honest review time... I just got my cooler yesterday. Hooked it up, and this morning I'm putting it to the test. I'm not a fan of rubber coated wheels ! These grinders all have rubber wheels. That being said, when grinding the platten gets hot as hell and as a result the heat transfers into the belt, and both the rubber wheels and in my opinion causes the rubber to deteriorate faster. It's bad if you're a full time maker and use this machine all the time like I do. Today I've hit this thing hard, and I have noticed the platten only gets mildly warm, not hot anymore. Holey cow man !!! This is the coolest thing they've made, and is a must in my opinion to help preserve the rubber wheels. I'm totally sold on the concept... great job guys !!! I absolutely love it !!!!!!!!!

Thank you !!!
